nvm, wrong thread

 

My only recommendation: lear how to drive, then have fun drifting; attend as many auto-x sessions as possible to get to know your car and you'll see how much fun the entire 'driving' sport is. You don't need much power to do it.

Now get out there and have fun.

 

^ yes.

But dont autoX ever.

 

Seriously.

 

Auto X is for middle aged Miata owners that left their wife and ran off with their boyfriend.

and I guess you could throw the typically EVO/STI douchmallet in there too.

 

well, it is fun... idk why it is so hated here lol it is a good way to drive hard off the street and get to learn your car and learn from other drivers. If you want to drift then indeed go to drift events but many of the japanese and us drivers have either an autox or ghymkana (sp) background before starting to get into drifting... makes sense to me since you get accostumed to your vehicle better than just going to drift events... now this is imho, not to contradict anyone else

 

just cause they did it doesn't always mean you should do it.....

thats like saying......

"dude did you see what they did in that 2 girls 1 cup video??????"

"yeah bro we should do it too"



do what you gotta do to drift, not what everyone else is doing

 

That's like comparing apples to vomiting **** into someone elses mouth.

 

even tho this thread has been beaten into the ground in all honesty, driving an underpowered car will help you develop skills (no matter what anyone says: sliding an underpowered car does take skill to recover quickly) and as long as you carry those skills along with you when you do end up upgrading, and realize that the car is going to respond differently, you will be fine.

just start out stock and do keep an eye on your heat levels. have fun and be safe. then when you want more power start dumpin money into it and dont mash on the throttle so much!

 

oh and if you get a chance to go to any events locally go take your car out and get to know her better...she'll talk to you if you'll listen

 

a rwd car, good brakes and an lsd is all you REALLY need to get started.

It sez so in deh drift bible.

 

you supply the girl. ill supply the cup.
we can make a sequel!!!

 

your eating the ****. not me

 

so my car's been turboswapped for some time now and i got alot of drifting in with it. stock turbo is good enough. can do high speed initiations and pull through the drift nice. can do some reverse initiations and pretty much..... stock turbo is good enough. i'll post up some vids sometime
